I heard that the big tomb in there is an ancient tomb, and no one can say what has been dug up in it, I only remember that within a few days of this, Duan Lin's house was lively.

The dead people in our village are called white things, and the marriage is called red things, red things for three days, white things for seven days, all of them are exquisite, and white things are also called lively, for children, the host's family has white things, we can eat and drink for several days, and by the way, we can also watch a few film movies, if you are rich, the movie will be on for seven days.

A few days ago, it was a family and friend who hung his filial piety, although he migrated from other places, but he lived in our village for decades, and almost all the villagers in the township would go to help, and his parents, like everyone else, went to Duan Lin's house to help, and today is the seventh day, according to the rules, it is also the last day of the white matter, people will be buried early in the morning, and from eight o'clock in the evening, it is the beginning of the 'first evil'.

'First Evil'! According to our custom, the dead should go home one last time to see and then leave, without being disturbed or disturbed in between. It's even strict to the point of who and what zodiac signs.

So at this time, when it gets dark in the village, the whole village will go to bed early, close the doors and windows, and my family is even more vigilant.

Just after seven o'clock, as soon as it was dark, my mother asked me to go to bed, and my father kept smoking dry tobacco in the hall, although I couldn't see it, but the strong smell of dry smoke could waft into my nostrils from time to time. I could tell they were worried, but I was too young to know what they were worried about.

In a daze, I don't know how long it took, I finally fell asleep, in my sleep, I saw Duan Lin, she was crying pitifully, constantly wiping her tears, and squatting in the corner of her house.

I wanted to go up and comfort a few words, but I saw the wooden door of her house creak, and half of her face poked out of it, this face is familiar to me, isn't this Duan Lin's father?

It seems that he also saw me, Duan Lin's father giggled from the crack in the door, the smile was really ugly, as if someone had choked his neck, slowly, the crack in the door began to be stretched out from the inside, Duan Lin's father's whole face leaked out, and the last half of his face leaked out, but I was shocked that I almost died, I saw that half of the face was dripping blood, the face seemed to have been gnawed by dogs, and white bones leaked out in some places, and the eyeballs were even more half-dropped under the eye sockets, at this time, the ugly laughter stopped, He spoke to me.

"You smell so good! You're so fragrant! It smells so good......"

As he spoke, the door opened, and he was about to pounce on me, and I wanted to run, but I was scared like a goose, my body trembled like chaff, and my legs were so weak that I didn't have any strength at all, so I could still run?

"Daddy! Let's send the baby to the hospital to see, this burn is confused! ”

My mother looked at me lying on the bed and fluttering wildly, helped me cover the quilt again, and then looked at my father as if pleading.

"Send a ball, it's 'Chusha' outside, you want to kill my baby!"

My father took a hard puff of dry cigarette and stared at the blood-red bull's eye, but his voice was much lowered, perhaps for fear of waking up my two sisters. Although he was scolding, from his irritable smoking, my mother knew that he felt more sorry for me than herself.

My father almost took a puff of cigarette, glanced at his watch, and asked my mother how it was, but my father still couldn't consume it first. Teng stood up with a bang, knocked the cigarette ash on the dining table and said:

"I'm afraid that he will be a ball, and I can't let the baby suffer. Give me the baby! ”

With that, he put the pot in his trouser pocket, picked me up and put it on his back, and before leaving the house, my mother chased me out and put on my father's military coat and was about to follow.

"Don't go, watch the two broken women at home!"

With that, he carried me out of the house without looking back.

Sent to the town hospital, after hanging a few bottles of water, the sky was already dark, and the mother and her two sisters stepped on the last moonlight, and also rushed to the hospital.

"What are you doing? I also brought two babies here! ”

"What's wrong?"

My mother didn't answer, but touched my forehead with concern, then covered me with a quilt and asked, and my father sighed, as if he didn't want to answer.

"Dad, has my brother's fever subsided?"

The eldest sister is in the sixth grade, with two pigtails, and she is also looking at me with concern at the moment.

Father touched the eldest sister's forehead lovingly, and finally showed a smile, these two girls are undoubtedly his greatest pride, every exam is the first, not even the second, the award certificate on the wall can no longer be posted, and the eldest sister will take the junior high school exam in June next year, this result, it is very promising to be admitted to the best junior high school in the county.

"It's okay, the fever has subsided."

The mother and the two older sisters breathed a sigh of relief, and then the two older sisters began to fall asleep again. Until, when it was dawn, my mother and sister were woken up by my father's rough voice.

The mother sat up from the chair in the ward and hurried out of the house, only to see the father scolding and walking back.

"What's wrong?"

"It's okay!"

"What's wrong?"

"It's nothing, it's nothing!"

The two of them seemed to be saying tongue twisters, but in the end it ended temporarily under the impatient tone of the father. His father's victory made him even more anxious, and he kept walking around the house, took out his dry tobacco bag, looked at me, who had just slept soundly, sighed heavily and put it back.

"I'm going to buy you something to eat, look at the hanging bottles, and tell them not to hang when it's almost over! We transfer hospitals! ”

After that, my father went out, and my mother chased me to the door with my military coat, and my father was no longer there.

After my mother and two sisters had finished eating, my father forcibly let them go back, and he took me to the big hospital in the county seat.

Mother goes and comes quickly. Just after lunch, my mother appeared in the ward of the county hospital. The father was a little surprised, and asked aloud:

"Why are you here? What about women? ”

"Woman, I let my sister-in-law next door take care of it, what's wrong with the baby?"

Silence, silence again! The mother sighed with self-pity, but the father shook his head and opened his mouth for the first time.

"What can I do, it's just a different place to continue hanging water."

"What did the doctor say, I don't burn anymore when I touch it?"

"Don't burn? It's not burning, but have you ever seen when our baby can sleep for such a long time? Do you call it to try? ”

The father was a little excited as he spoke, his eyes were already red, and in order to hide it, he could only snort heavily, and then turned his back.

My mother was really serious and lay down in front of me and called my name.

"One by one? One one? Get up! One by one......"

My mother even forced me to sit up, then pinched me, screwed me, and no matter what, I didn't react at all, and I didn't even have a random fluttering movement. If you don't still breathe, I'm afraid it's no different from a dead person.

"What's wrong with the baby? What else do you want to hide from me? ”

My mother gently put me on the bed and lay on my stomach, and finally, I began to cry, and my dissatisfaction with my father finally burst out at this moment.

His father's eyes were red, and he gently patted his mother's shoulder to comfort him.

"The baby is nothing serious, the doctor said, it is very healthy, but he is sleepy, and he wakes up when he has slept enough."

It's okay not to be comforted, this comfort, the mother wowed, and cried even more fiercely.

After three days in the county hospital, the situation still did not improve, because of the concern for my two sisters, my parents took me home temporarily, ready to pack up, and go to the provincial capital to find a big hospital again.

My parents have been away for the past three days, and the village has been lively. As soon as the two of them carried me back to the village, they saw chickens and dogs jumping, crying and shouting, and the village seemed to have been looted, and a small group of people gathered around the next few households, discussing something.

"Brother Blacksmith is back? What's wrong with the kids? ”

The fifth grandfather's house close to my house, there are also a bunch of people around the door, talking, it is Anwa, who had a conflict with my family, at the moment holding a cigarette is around the crowd to watch the excitement, seeing his father come back, he hurriedly handed over a cigarette, but look at his eyes, but all fell on my father's back, my eyes actually showed a look of joy, I don't know whether I was hungry or nervous, Adam's apple involuntarily made a swallowing action.

The father didn't take the cigarette or answer, but just pouted at the fifth grandfather's house and asked:

"What's wrong with the fifth uncle's house?"

Awa stared at me without blinking, but she still spoke openly.

"Hey, who knows what's going on, not only the fifth uncle's family, these days, there are chickens and ducks raised by others every day, and they are all terrible, but the fifth uncle's family is more unlucky, his cow died! That one...... Ay...... I'm not done yet! ”

My father couldn't stand Anwa's drooling problem, so he heard about it and hurriedly hugged me and rushed home. After telling my mother to take care of me, I ran towards my fifth grandfather's house with a roar.

I heard my father say that scene, he has never seen it in his life, the big white cow is lying in the cowpen, the ground is full of minced meat, almost except for the head intact, there is no good piece of meat, the internal organs are pasted, and the cow's heart is gone, the fifth grandfather is cursing at the moment, and the fifth grandmother is sitting on the ground crying.

The father ran a few more houses, and the situation was about the same, people slept in the house, and almost no movement was heard, and when they got up in the morning, it was like this, and only a few people with dogs heard the dog barking, and when they came out, the dog was also ruined.

There is everything in the village, because it is in the hinterland of Qinchuan, so there are occasionally some wild animals that break in, therefore, many people think that this time, it is also done by animals, but no one knows what it is, some say it is a wolf, some say it is a bear, some say it is a fox and a wild boar and the like.

This matter soon had an answer, because that night, someone in the village got up in the middle of the night to relieve himself and caught the murderer, strictly speaking, the murderer should have been seen, but the murderer just ran away.

That person is Eva!
